Headlight washer system

[Trebor77]

Hi, according to the spec my new SE-L has a headlight washer system. What & where is it ??       No sign of a wiper blade on it ???.   Thanks

They are high pressure jets, they work off the front screen wash stalk, as long as your washer fluid isn't low.

 Small apertures below the headlights. Easily found and tested - just stand immediately in front of the car, turn the headlights and ignition on and get someone to operate the screen wash stalk

You can see better if you look really closely....like, nose nearly touching the headlight...you can get a proper good view then  :peek:

They also cover your freshly washed & waxed Brilliant Silver bonnet with a lovely covering of Brilliant Screen Wash Blue globules.

Nice, and thanks all for the help, but without a wiper blade does it help ??

I think it does help a little.

It's more because it's a regulation that xenon headlamps must have a self washing facility, rather than because Skoda like adding nice features. They just advertise it as a feature to sell more

Oh wow, I thought those little panels below the headlights were access to the wiring!    How many more surprises does this car have for me ???     Thanks
